AH> Is this a bug? No, it's just a side effect of a normal behaviour. Some things you should note: a) TB! can place the senders first name, last name, full-name, initials etc. as part of the quote prefix. b) For incoming messages using these fancy quote prefixes, TB! will sense and show them as quotes. This is done by assuming (as the default) that if a '>' character appears within 20 characters of the line of text, then it should be treated as a quote prefix. We all thought this setting was unreasonably large and asked for it to be configurable. Our wish was granted and the setting for this is in the Editor preferences/Quote Name Limit. I have mine set to 4 characters since most will quote using initials and not names. c) Finally, TB!'s editor has the wonderful ability of being able to reflow quoted material, even quoted material with the special prefixing with initials etc. When you see your text change, it's because you have put a '>' character in the line of text that's within the quote name limit defined in your editor preferences. As a result of this TB! assumes the '>' character is a quote prefix and treats the line of text as such. As you type and a new line is created, TB! automatically inserts the quote prefix in the new line. AH> if so how do I get around it....try it and you'll see what I mean. You can indent initially indent the line containing the '>' character > like this, or you could use an alternative character. Lowering the quote name limit to 2 or so will also help a lot. - -- Allie C Martin - (List Moderator) PGP Public Key - mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ŪTB! v1.60c on Windows XP 5.1.2600] _ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iEYEARECAAYFAjyrtQQACgkQV8nrYCsHF+KJ/wCfWR9JcX0PRfPIySEOeTEl1b0h MDwAn2VzwGaOKXqdtetAvozG/6uKQBBq =IJLk -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ________________________________________________________ Current Ver: 1.60c FAQ : http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
